You know all those blank spots on store shelves. We maybe about to get an education on how much of our everyday things come from China.

Fake numbers, fake news, fake medical equipment. Why am I knowing? Cuz They are starting economy by vendor.

Very good trend, China exports will dip 10 percent by year end as more people from india shun Chinese products due to Chinese attack on India. USA and Europe and Australia also trying to reduce import from China. People are fearing to touch anything from China.

All good, we're still moving goods but we have stopped the growth based economy that was killing us. Imagine a new restart!

fall?shrink? Are you serious? I am watching TV now, both are rising.......

If this data was provided by CCPChina, I want to remind you that CCPChina also said no one died in TiananmenSquareMassacre
